Speciality: Infection Control


Speaker:

Deepak Arjundas | HCP

Description:

Medical waste can pose serious risks if not handled properly. In clinical settings, it's crucial to follow strict protocols to protect both healthcare workers and the environment. Start by segregating waste at the source—use colour-coded bins to separate sharps, infectious materials, and general waste. Always wear protective gear like gloves and masks when handling medical waste. Never overfill disposal containers, and ensure they're securely closed before transport. Regular staff training is essential to maintain safety standards. By following these steps, we reduce the risk of infection and environmental contamination. Remember, safe medical waste management is everyone's responsibility in a healthcare facility.
